Left4Dead was a great game with a simple concept: survive the zombie infection. And the second game? Looks like the same concept, but same good old zombie head popping action. I only got a chance at one round, but I still had a lot of fun! Continue reading “E3 09 Preview: Left 4 Dead 2”

Valve continues its brain eating ways on the PC and Xbox 360 by announcing Left 4 Dead 2 at E3. With a new game, comes new infected towns and new survivors trying to run from the zombie onslaught. According to Valve, the game will have the survivors fighting through five campaigns, starting in Savannah, Georgia, thru the bayou country and ending up in one of New Orleans’ most famous landmarks, the French Quarters.
According to IGN.com, L4D2 will come with new melee weapons, (frying pan, bats, fireman axes, and chainsaws!) a new zombie, (the Charger) new weapons ( silenced submachine gun, a new assault rifle, scoped assault rifle, and more) and a new director that Valve is calling AI Director 2.0.
AI Diretor 2.0 will allow changes in weather, world object, changes in a players pathway, so you may never take the same path twice, more strategic zombie placement and populations, music mixes and sounds effects based on how well the player is doing.
The new survivors (Nick the flashy dreser, the beutiful Rochelle, Ellis the Mechanic, and the big black powerhouse, Coach) will be ready to fight this fall as Valve has announced the game will be coming out this year on November 17th.
Steam decided to shoot UT3 for a free multiplayer trial last weekend, plus a discount on the full game. The result? A massive 2000% increase in players. No kidding.

There are not many hours left so if you haven’t seen it yet this is almost a steal. The full Rockstar Games Collection is 50% off this weekend at just $29.99 U.S. You can get it via the Valve download service Steam which means while you don’t get a big box to put on your shelf there is the bonus of getting the games just as fast as your net connection. It’s quite a perk all this digital downloading from Steam as it even patches the games when required automatically so those who haven’t taken a look at the service should do so. The collection includes the GTA’s, Max Payne’s and Manhunt among others.
Be aware though this offer is doubtful to be available to those outside the US so bad luck for most of the world. It’s very unfair for those of US who are outside the US but on occasion we do get offers that our American counterparts don’t so there is some balance in the world.
